Take My Heart (You Can Have It If You Want It) Lyrics


Has there ever come a time, when you fell real nice
And you want to let someone know that you really appreciate them?
All you have to do is moan a little bit for me,
It goes something like this
Ooooh, ooooho, oooooh, oooooho.You see, no time for wasting, baby,
We're gone all through those moves
I'm offering satisfaction, darling,
Girl, I'm giving you all my love,
Anytime is the right time, baby,
Come on and, take my heart
It's all yours if you want it, baby,
My heart is tearing all apart, I sayOoooh (you can have it)
Yeah (if you want it)
Come and get it, baby,
But if you want it (you can have it)
Come and get it, girl, yeah (if you want it), yeah.
See darling - there's no time for wasting, baby,
Come on please, make up your mind.

Good loving is so pleasing, baby,
Girl, I'm giving you all my time.
You can have it if you want it
Just come and get it, and, baby, it's yours, yeah.
I've got it to give and if you want it.
I know that you're gonna love it, so come on, girl.
Oh, I knew you'd like it,
Oh baby, you got me saying something like
Oooooh, ooooho.One night while I was sleeping, baby,
Had a dream of you and I,
Found myself asking you, baby,
Take my hand and be my wife.There's no time for wasting, baby,
Cause we've gone all through these moves
Cause I'm offering satisfaction, darling,
Girl, I'm giving you all my love.You can have it, yeah, if you want it.
You can have it (baby, you really want my loving)
If you want it (it's all yours, baby)
You can have it any time of the day if you want it.Don't matter what place it is, baby, you can get it, baby.
You can have it (come on, girl, and get it)
If you want it you can have it
(cause I will make you feel alright)
If you want it (can't you tell that)
You can have it (take my heart)
If you want it (come on, darling)
You can have it (take my heart)
If you want it (satisfaction guaranteed)
You can have it (take my heart)
If you want it you can have it (take my heart)
If you want it.

Kool & The Gang are a highly successful jazz/R&B/soul/funk/disco group. They originally formed in Jersey City, New Jersey, United States in 1964, playing jazz. They went through several musical phases in their career. They also played R&B and funk, eventually went through a phase where they were a smooth disco ensemble, and wound up the successful period of their career recording tunes that were a mixture of pop and R&B.

The group's main members over the years included the eccentric Englishman Chris Gair, brothers Robert Bell (known as "Kool") on bass and Ronald Bell on tenor saxophone; George Brown on drums; Robert Mickens on trumpet; Dennis Thomas on alto saxophone; Claydes Charles Smith on guitar, and Rick Westfield on keyboards. The Bell brothers' father was an acquaintance of Thelonious Monk and the brothers were friends with Leon Thomas.

In 1964 Robert formed an instrumental band called the Jazziacs with five high-school friends. They changed their name to Kool & the Gang and were signed by Gene Redd to his new record label De-Lite Records in 1969.[3] They first hit the pop charts with the release of their debut eponymous album.

Though none of the three singles from the album went far on the pop charts, their R&B success was swift and massive. Several live and studio albums followed, with 1973's Wild and Peaceful breaking into the mainstream with "Jungle Boogie" and "Hollywood Swinging." Many reviews see the Gang's 1974 album Light of Worlds and 1975 album Spirit of the Boogie as the greatest achievements of the band, with the 1975 single "Summer Madness" gaining much attention. However, after the release of those albums the band abandoned deep funk music and switched to disco. Generally, the albums released after 1975 have not received the same critical acclaim as their early work. Though they still inspired many artists, including The Mighty Majors ("You Can Never Go Back") who opened a show for them once on the road.

The late 1970s saw a lull in Kool & the Gang's career that ended — after new lead singer James "J.T." Taylor joined the group — with 1979's Ladies' Night, the title track from which was spawned a 25-year-long tradition of ladies' nights in New Jersey dance clubs and bars. Their only #1 hit was 1980's "Celebration," from Celebrate!, produced by Eumir Deodato. More international hits followed in the early 1980s, including "Big Fun," "Get Down on It" and "Joanna." Their 1984 album Emergency yielded four top-20 pop hits, including "Fresh" rumored to be inspired by a girl named Alison Hartung and "Cherish." Their chart presence stopped abruptly after the Forever album, when both Taylor and Ronald Bell (who had begun using the name Khalis Bayyan) left the group; Bell would eventually return, but the hits would not.

Kool and the Gang rose to some popularity again in 1994 after "Jungle Boogie" was featured on the soundtrack of Quentin Tarantino's well known cult classic Pulp Fiction. The band released the album "Still Kool" in 2007.
